Multifunctional textile façade with an aluminium construction

Façades which radiate style, ensure maximum transparency or feature impressive illumination. With the new Schüco FACID AC (Aluminium Construction) textile façade, the external appearance of a building can be quickly and efficiently adapted to changing requirements without limiting the function of the property or using a steel substructure. As there is no steel substructure, fewer work steps are required, which significantly reduces the workload.

The functional modular principle allows the construction to be flexibly adapted to the site conditions. The many variations with rectangular fields in two or three-dimensional façades can be ideally combined with lighting and illumination effects. This creates a perfect symbiosis of form and function in the façade – for both existing and new buildings. 

The high-tech fabric of the textile façade solution offers unrestricted views to the outside together with effective screening, sun shading, glare protection and weather resistance. 30 different fabrics, 26 different colours and digital printing options guarantee a wide and individual range of designs.

Planning benefit

  • High degree of design freedom for the façade
  • FACID fabrics provide effective screening and sun shading
  • Can be combined with other Schüco systems to create unique designs
  • Individual designs for two or three-dimensional façades with rectangular fields
  • Transparent façade appearance forms the basis for light effects such as back-lighting and projections; the opaqueness of the fabric can also be increased or decreased
  • Digital printing on the fabric provides corporate communication
  • Based on a patented clamping system used worldwide: maximum functionality and clamping without folds in all corners and attachments, combined with durability and low costs across the entire lifecycle of the building
  • Use of high-tech textiles ensures multifunctional applications such as screening, sun shading, glare protection and weather resistance; fibreglass fabric with fire classification A2 can also be used
